A Great Victory
A Terrible Case Of scrofuIa
Cured by
Hoods S~arsaparilla


"In the winter OF 1879 I was attacked with
Scrofula in one Of the most aggravatlng forms.
At one time I had no less than thirteen large
assesses over and aroundn my neck and throat,
continually exuding an offensive mass Of
bloody matter disgusting to behold, and
almost intolerable to endure. It Is impossible
to fully describe my suierlngs, as the case
was complicated with Chronic Catarrh. After
three years OF misery, having been treated by
three physicians, I was worse than ever.
Finally, on the recommendation OF w. j.
Huntley, druggist, of Lockport, l was induced
to try Hoods Sarsaparilla. And now, after
having taken twelve bottles, within the last
twelve months, the scrofulous eruptions have
entirely ceased, and the assesses have all
disappeared, except the unsightly scars, which
are DAILY. becoming smaller by degrees, and
beautifully less do not know what 1t may

possible for them to do So We have pri-

road to the effect that this road is to be
built, and that it will be the first one I'M
dertaken in the spring.
People may say that it will parallel the
Santa Fe the entire distance. Mr. Charles
Francis Adams, president of the Union
Pacific, says they intend to strike out into
the very heart of the Santa Fe territory and
this line will come nearer accomplishing
this than any other line that could be built
All the prelminaries are being arranged
and actual work will begin on this road be-
fore the month is out.
The importance of this line to ElDorado
can hardly be estimated. 1t practically
gives us four Of the five systems OF roads IL

second to none in the state.

A LIBEL SUIT PROMISED.
Ex-Governor ST Johns Son Will Resen
SANDER on His Wife.

A special TO the Kansas City Times from
Topeka, under date of Feb 7, says:
A few days ago a Wichita paper pub
| lished scandalous story concerning Harry
| C. st. John, son Of Ex-Governor John p.
ST. John, and a prominent attorney OF
Garden City 1t asserted that in the early
part Of January he had been forced to
marry The daughter Of prominent citizen
| Of Colorado with q revolver at his head,
and while the corpse Of the Legitimate
child lay dead in an adjoioing room.
st. John and his wife arrived in the city
today. He denied the truth of the story as
published and declared it to be tissue of
falsehood He said that January he was
married in Garden City to the daughter OF
Judge W. 3. FELTON,, Of Canyon City, Col,
exwarden of the Colorado state peniten-
tiarv. and this was all the foundation there
was to the statement
Tonight Mr.. ST. John left for Wichita,
where he will bring suit for criminal libel
against II. NJ Murdoch, the editor and
proprietor OF the paper, and also against
the proprietor Of a Burton paper, which
also published the story.
St John is a pleasant looking gentleman
very much resembling his father in APP
pcarance, while his wife is neat appear
ing lady about % 10 81 years old of retir-
ing, modest disposition. He states that as
far as the papers are concerned no com
promise viii be accepted by him. He in
tends to fight for the vindication OF the
character Of his wife in the courts.
The ex-governor's boy was for several
years a resident Of this city, he and his
wife and children. Harry is a chip Of the
old block, and what the EAGLE said will
be adhered to until convinced that it was
wrong There was go Intentional SANDER,
